  Thanks for the ideas, Troy, but I couldn't get that to work in Mozilla/Firefox. In Internet Explorer it works fine, though.

  No, I didn't make the pointer invisible - I just needed it to follow nearby.

  Greetings to Pristina - its nice to meet you!

    Thanks anyway, I believe that the script will surely work now,
    but you have to tell me,
    how did you manage to make the mouse pointer get invisible,
    because I'm almost sure that this is why you need this kind of 
    script in the first place?!

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    <HTML>
    <BODY>
    <img src='mypointer.gif' ID="myImage" 
    style="position:absolute;top:0px;left:-500px">
    </img>
    </BODY>
    <SCRIPT>
    //version 1.0 -Troy III- progresive art enterprise
    h = myImage.height/2, w = myImage.width/2;
    function mousefollower(){
               x=event.x
               y=event.y
        myImage.style.posLeft= x-h
        myImage.style.posTop = y-w }
    document.onmousemove=mousefollower
    </SCRIPT>
    </HTML>
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    (the corrected [!and tested!] version)

    No need for it now.

    I don't that much, but I like the fact that you do.
    I'm from Pristina, Ancient Dardania, today a small piece of it: 
    Kosova.

    My best regards to you
